Abstract (en)

In a distributed system having a plurality of interconnected computer systems each having an application program (101), a process manager (102) which determines the need for a communication process, determines an identifier of a destination system and a protocol and issues a communication process request in response to a process request for database access from the application program, and a virtual communication user (103) for determining an application context in response to the communication process request from the process manager are provided, and a communication path a protocol machine (104) establishes for the virtual communication user. A plurality of virtual communication users (103) for managing the communication process are provided and each virtual communication user manages a plurality of protocol machines (104) so that a plurality of protocols and application programs are simultaneously used for a plurality of destination systems from one application program. <IMAGE>
